california is on the list. it is a large state. the estimate was that something like 200,000 jobs would be lost. 200,000 jobs in california is a lot. take a state like in hampshire. the number was something like 60,000 jobs. you have to look at the proportionality and that is something that has been missed. host: we are talking with juana summers. she is a reporter with politic o. if you want to get involved in the conversation, give us a call. the number is 202-585-3881 for republicans. you can still send us an e-mail. our first phone call comes from walter in indiana. caller: thank you for taking my call. i appreciate it. sequestration will be the best thing to happen to this country since you have the democrats and the republicans saying, i do not want to cut programs. neither side will come to the metal. it is like the doctor forcing you to get the -- new side will come to the middle. it is not about raising taxes. it is about squandering trillions and trillions of dollars. we are broke. it will be the best thing to foresee thi

not california. >> california is deep blue. >> not california. no, no. not california, not in new york. that's right, but we were extremely competitive. i don't think latinos have forgotten about that. i think latinos understand that ronald reagan was the last one to pass immigration reform. they understand that george w. bush worked very hard for immigration reform and i think what we allow ourselves is for a small group within the gop to hijack this issue and become the vocal voice on immigration. the problem with republicans is the majority remained silent, remained silent. can we take over? absolutely, but i don't think latinos are going to keep this in their mind. if they have a republican candidate who's good on immigration, who can make a populous case for why limited government and a free economy is better for latinos, they will support the republican candidate, no problem. >> good. dan, so now -- and take us back also -- >> yes. >> say what you're going to say, but then take us back to your millennial voter question, because i think that's reall
